Malody can't get government assistance because he lives at home with his parents rent free. This dipshit expects people to believe that the kind couple that puts a roof over the head of their ungrateful and creepy son doesn't also feed him.
One user called him out when he posted the kofi only to be permanently banned. Despite this being one of the main causes of the definitely real trans genocide, they have since been unbanned. I always wondered how they pulled that off. I assume they just linked to this thread in their ticket. Edit: Triple Post!!! Sorry for stealing your kink, potato.

Quote:Funny thing is carrying Trumps water doesn't guarantee a future for the press in another Trump administration. They seem to think they will survive to report on all the drama Trump brings that they live so much. I wonder if they ever stop to consider they might find themselves locked up or shutdown when God King doesn't like something they've said.I love how they always go for this explanation, that everyone else is being a "pick me" and that's the only reason they do anything. They all start convincing themselves the media is against them: Quote:It's been happening so much, I've literally lost all faith on how the media will portray the debate. I am certain no matter how bad Trump does, they will cover for him. Quote:It's why Trump is going to win. He cant be held accountable and Harris can do no right. The same thing with Clinton. Quote:Even excluding right-wing media the last few years have just been beyond fucking pathetic to watch. Legitimizing the endless culture wars and right-wing clown show, completely perpetuating the status quo, baiting readers with pathetically transparent headlines and skimpy articles. It's so disasppointing. The latest shit with "interpreting" the inane shit Trump is trying to say to try to weave it into coherent policy rather than disorganized, stream-of-consciousness lying is bordering on criminal negligence when it comes to delivering the truth. I hate it. Quote:The median NYT reader; reasonably wealthy, right of center sheltered whites, are probably the people who love to be wowed like little children at the science museum regarding the diversity roles you mentioned. Quote:They were doing this before. Point in case, the NYT makes good money (recipes, crosswords, etc) and plenty of people signed up after 2016 and they carried on doing the same nonsense. They seem to actively revel in it tbh. Quote:Timely as I spent lunch discussing how much we expected the debate tmrw to be a shitshow almost entirely due to the media likely planning to drag Kamala down a peg as it feels time they soften out of a honeymoon phase. krazen wrote:As long as the editors/publishers are rich and white it's just selling product. Throw in private equity, rage clicks = profit and a once honorable profession is shit. Quote:Iceberg ahead mainstream media after this election no one will trust you the rise of independent media is unstoppable and you are just a bunch of silly consultants who tell people in your industry how to fail. Then a guy actually pushes back against the weirdos and a conspiracy theorist takes him to task: Quote:Quote:from my perspective, those hyper-consumed about the state of corporate media in whats largely campaign-based coverage (which we've always been in since Trump first became the republican front runner all the way up to the present moment) tend to self-absorbed in their own media bubble. It's important that mass media its criticized, and its role in influencing the positions of everyday people, that's certainly important. Yeah, the media shapes narratives, but also its not like access journalism has gone away and they don't play ball with the dems. Everybody saw Biden's clear mental decline, and you had the Press Secretary claim those videos were AI fake news. No they werent! Certainly some people created edit videos but the actual footage tracks with the characterization and we know that because it happened often! And the prevailing, dominant opinion amongst the commentariat was "Biden is doing just fine, its offensive to imply his age is a factor cause trump also old and bad but also biden is fine" Just complete head in the sand stuff and the elation of Kamala being passed the torch allowed many people to realize how well they were getting stringed along too.What? The media had been playing up the mental decline angle since 2022. Quote:Quote:If you think of it as a binary, mutually exclusive "if they're being biased towards trump that means they're not aligned with the democrats" then you'll be confused. Otherwise you have to explain why they tolerated the White House's narrative that Biden was doing A-OK when it was uncle genocide grandpa's nap time. And it *was* toleration up until the debate, given the overnight about-face and the floodgates opened. All those press hits Pelosi did? Come on. This stuff was an open secret to people who paid attention and the actual players themselves. The only people were misled were those who naively think the media's softpeddling of trump coverage as proof that they don't softpeddling shit for dems all the time.What? No. This is just flat out wrong.

Hello!!

I have less respect for George the celebrity that put himself in this avoidable position many years ago and will probably never come out from under. Much “better”, more honest… But I know you want to actually call him slurs and a fat fuck sell out. The condescending tone doesn’t hide your anger. Soliloquy of the Dogge wrote:He really can't figure out a way to edit his ending even though all he has to do is actually write some actual plot development that doesn't flanderize characters and their motivations like season 8 did.

But again, this is probably “better” than the fake crocodile tears of that thread. I think people should be able to criticize the dude and don’t pretend they empathize with him… but is annoying that many are mad about the dude criticizing a show they stanned for and that GRRM has stopped being polite about his opinion of adaptations.

Funny how their whole thing about artists seems to go out the door when it comes to the written word. Well, unless they're game journalists apparently.

OP wrote:Layoffs in the video game industry reached a high water mark this year. Beloved studios are fading away. Concord happened. It feels like greedy suits with dollar signs for eyes have sucked half the life out of gaming in one year alone. Capitalism is busted and it's hurting games. Quote:The cure (or improvement) for capitalism isn't communism, it's capitalistic socialism. Platy wrote:Communism is better if you like indie games Quote:Politics is certainly not that black and white. Platy wrote:Concord is uniquely a failure of capitalism in the sense that is a failure that can only exist in capitalism. Mauricio_Magus wrote:Communism requires an international effort that I don't think we'll see in our lifetimes, sadly. Quote:There are no communist countries in the world today. One could argue there has never been one, period. Quote:Considering the stated goal of Communism is to allow the laborer freedom to pursue their own interests and goals for the sake of fulfillment, I don't see why gaming couldn't exist under such a society. Granted they likely wouldn't be to the scale we know them as today but they'd probably be far more diverse, personal and interesting.Uh, no it's not. Chief Malik wrote:China's uses a hybrid system that combines market mechanisms with strong state control and socialist values. Unlike let's say…. the states (where I'll just assume OP is from), China's focus is on long-term development, poverty alleviation, and collective welfare. It has lifted millions out of poverty, avoiding the pitfalls of unchecked market systems like in the states. China's approach is about prioritizing social stability and communal progress over PURE profit. Look into the fall of the soviet union and how they went out in their way to avoid that without becoming a neoliberal wasteland like the states. Quote:It's people named Jeff, if people would stop naming their kids Jeff, everything would work out.SHOTS FIRED Then two guys reply to Chief Malik: Quote:That is a WILDLY charitable explanation of how China works. Quote:You are regurgitating government propaganda. And B-Dubs races in to the rescue with the lock: B-Dubs wrote:Do we really need to do this? All these sorts of threads do is turn into ideological slap fights while the people who lived in places like China get ignored when they talk about what life is like for them. Even though the bulk of the thread was just people making jokes or mocking the OP before Platy and Malik took it seriously.
